More From George Bernard Shaw

"god", "immortality of the soul", "redemption", "beyond" - without exception, concepts to which i have never devoted any attention, or time; not even as a child. perhaps i have never been childlike enough for them? i do not by any means know atheism as a result; even less as an event: it is a matter of course with me, from instinct. i am too inquisitive, too questionable, too exuberant to stand for any gross answer. god is a gross answer, an indelicacy against us thinkers - at bottom merely a gross prohibition for us: you shall not think!

Branson ate his salad, and left the rest of his fish untouched, while grace tucked into his steak and kidney pudding with relish. 'i read a while ago,' he told branson, 'that the french drink more red wine than the english but live longer. the japanese eat more fish than the english but drink less wine and live longer. the germans eat more red meat than the english, and drink more beer and they live longer too. you know the moral of this story? 'no' 'it's not what you eat or drink - it's speaking english that kills you.

If i marry: he must be so tall that when he is on his knees, as one has said he reaches all the way to heaven. his shoulders must be broad enough to bear the burden of a family. his lips must be strong enough to smile, firm enough to say no, and tender enough to kiss. love must be so deep that it takes its stand in christ and so wide that it takes the whole lost world in. he must be active enough to save souls. he must be big enough to be gentle and great enough to be thoughtful. his arms must be strong enough to carry a little child.

History proves that dictatorships do not grow out of strong and successful governments, but out of weak and helpless ones. if by democratic methods people get a government strong enough to protect them from fear and starvation, their democracy succeeds; but if they do not, they grow impatient. therefore, the only sure bulwark of continuing liberty is a government strong enough to protect the interests of the people, and a people strong enough and well enough informed to maintain its sovereign control over its government.
Strong Successful Government
Whenever the devil harasses you, seek the company of men or drink more, or joke and talk nonsense, or do some other merry thing. sometimes we must drink more, sport, recreate ourselves, and even sin a little to spite the devil, so that we leave him no place for troubling our consciences with trifles. we are conquered if we try too conscientiously not to sin at all. so when the devil says to you: do not drink, answer him: i will drink, and right freely, just because you tell me not to.
